AI Assistant

NimoteCode includes two AI experiences: AI Chat for direct help and AI Agent for multi-step execution.

AI Chat

Use AI Chat when you want fast answers during coding:

• Explain unfamiliar code
• Analyze terminal errors
• Propose refactor plans
• Generate safer next steps before commit

AI Agent

Use AI Agent when work requires multiple actions and checks:

• Step-by-step execution flow
• Progress visibility and run status
• Risk prompts before sensitive actions
• Auto mode or confirm mode based on your control preference

Provider Flexibility

NimoteCode supports multiple provider templates:

• OpenAI
• Anthropic
• Gemini
• Grok
• DeepSeek
• Zhipu
• Moonshot
• Ollama
• Custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints

What You Can Configure

• Model identity and endpoint
• Sampling behavior and output size
• Streaming response mode
• System prompt and context size
• File-context usage for codebase-aware responses

Best-Practice Setup

1. Keep one primary cloud model and one backup model.
2. Use lower creativity for deterministic coding tasks.
3. Keep file context on for project-level analysis.
4. Review AI output before running in production.
